A vacation in a foreign land
Uncle sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Now you remember what the draftsman said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

You'll be the hero of the neighborhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there, no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Hand grenades flying over your head!

Missiles flying over your head
If you wanna survive, get out of bed
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Shots ring out in the dead of night
The sergeant calls: Stand up and fight!

You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

You got your orders standing to shoot on sight
Your finger's on the trigger, but it don't seem right

You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality?

You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
You're in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army now

Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now

Woah-woh, you're in the army, in the army now
Woah-woh, you're in the army, you're in the army now
